Anex-A-Gram is a variant of Anagrams played on a 13x13 square grid of circular holes punched through the game board. The game pieces are black wooden tiles with a circular peg on the bottom (to fit in the board's holes) and a raised-relief white letter on top. (Or in the case of one tile, a red cross.) Tile racks are included for each player. The game is an early attempt to move Anagrams onto a game board, like the later Scrabble. As with these other games, the goal in Anex-A-Gram is to be the first to use up all of your tiles and to score the most points.
